    $1.00 Dollar a gallon, Recycled ATF from the local 10 minute oil change

    I'll be cutting a check to the people's commonwealth of Pennsylvania for $0.38/gal soon. The last thing I need is a headache like that. I have two on-board M35 tanks and a jerry can so I figure I will pay for 115 gal to cover my self. $43.70 is cheap insurance. I spend more money on beer and...

    Tranfer case hodgepodge

    Ok, so I tore down the air shift case with the bad internals. I found 30% of a bearing race and a beat up ball bearing, so I assume the previous owner pulled out the other parts. I can't see where the bearing came from, so it must be from inside the shifting mechanism. The case did have...

    Pennsylvania M35A2 owners.....A couple questions for you.

    From my research and discussion with a State Police inspector, with an antique plate you are not required to stop, but to keep them from chasing you down the road, it is best to just swing through, say hello, and keep on trucking. With a regular tag, you do need to stop, and you better have...

    Pennsylvania M35A2 owners.....A couple questions for you.

    Hmm, I've added tag lights and marker lights to mine for safety reasons, but I have an Antique plate for now. I would say I spent $70 on lights to get it up to DOT spec for a truck this size. -license plate light -front (amber) side, mid (amber) side, and rear (red) side marker lights -5 amber...

    Pennsylvania M35A2 owners.....A couple questions for you.

    You'll have to provide a little more detail about the problem you're incurring if you want help. Can you not find a shop that will inspect the truck?

    brake bleeding

    I think the total cost of building a pressure bleeder for me was less than $20 for a weed sprayer bottle and some brass fittings. I also installed a remote brake fluid reservoir and pressure bleed at the cap there. Don't go over 6-8 pumps of the sprayer. I blew out the seals in my master...

    NAPA part numbers for WMO filter set up.

    I think my 55 gal drum is about the right size. Any bigger and I would worry about insulating, any smaller and I would be touching it way more than I want to with about 400 gals of oil needing processed right now.

    Front Spring U-bolts Loose

    No joke! I found the same thing on my truck last weekend when changing the differential and transmission fluid. Mine was only the driver side 2 u-bolts though. They needed a complete revolution or more to tighten up but the passenger side was tight. Is anyone else tempted to cut off that...

    NAPA part numbers for WMO filter set up.

    Any updates? I'm picking up 2 110V flange mount hot water tank heating elements on Saturday for my set-up. I think I'll be ordering one of those temperature switches posted earlier to try it out. I have an open top 55 gal drum up high on a stand for this experiment.
